The Monarch's Commendation of Valuable Service, also known simply as Valuable Service, is awarded for significant contribution in development projects and military operations, and for any other noteworthy service that leads to the improvement of One Nation Under Jou. Valuable Service was the first award to be added to the nation's awards system since its establishment in Year 21. The commendation was developed when it was recognised that Mentioned in Dispatches and Letter of Commendation were not fit for purpose, and a new award was needed to fit the monarch's intentions. The two awards were combined to create the Valuable Service award, which was added to the system in Year 23 on Day 82.
When the Commendation of Valuable Service is awarded in conjunction with another medal, a device is added to that medal's ribbon to represent the commendation.
The sixth level of Valuable Service allows its recipient the use of post-nominal letters.
